CHICAGO (CBS) — Single-day tickets for Lollapalooza sold out in less than two hours on Wednesday.

The single-day passes for the music festival in Grant Park went on sale at 10 a.m., and by 11:45 a.m., the promoters announced tickets had sold out.

Three-day passes also sold out last month, in less than three hours; VIP passes sold out on Tuesday.

The only tickets left for Lollapalooza are through pricey Travel Packages, which include three-night stays at Chicago hotels, plus general admission or VIP tickets for the festival. Prices for Travel Packages begin at $1,599 for general admission tickets for two people, and run as high as $9,299 for VIP platinum packages for two people.

Running from Aug. 2 to Aug. 4, Lollapalooza is being headlined this year by Nine Inch Nails, The Killers, Mumford & Sons, The Cure, Phoenix, Postal Service, Vampire Weekend, New Order, the Lumineers, and Queens of the Stone Age.

A body was discovered Sunday in the search-and-recovery mission for a west suburban woman who went missing off a northwest Indiana beach after she and two other swimmers got caught in a rip current Friday evening.
